Hi, If you are doing validation in the validate() method of your Action Form, just check for "submit" action inside the method. i.e,
public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) { if( method.equals("submit")) { //do validation } } I guess this should take care of your problem.
